Great Album, a definite keeper for the smooth jazz list. I've only heard the "Whatever It Takes" song on the radio recently and was hooked, so I checked them out to see if they were as good as they sounded. It's true, they are even better than they sounded! A MUST HAVE for the smooth jazz fan!

...i really dislike "smooth" jazz. most of it is not really as smooth or as jazzy as it is just plain old boring. this is the one category of music i get burned on the most whenever i purchase any...especially the ones that claim to be "the greatest combination of hip-hop and jazz". there's no hip-hop at all on this cd, but the tracks here are all a shade shy from being funky and laid-back enough without being drowsy. whether you "sittin back in the cut", "jus' chillin'" or "jus' gon' marinade"-this is good pre- and post-date music to conversate over...or WHATEVER it is you do.

this is a great funky "smooth"-jazz album, unfortunately it is not listenable to good ears.

the audio-engineer must have been deaf! i've never heard anyhting like that, only with some single tracks (e.g. on george michael's patience) but in this case the whole album is polluted by some high-frequency noise around 16KHz that makes listening to the music a real torture, he must have used some exciter or other high-frequency enhancer that added this horrible noise.

i get headache from it.

I must confess I love Mark Whitfield's music. I have everything. Some is better than others. I had never heard of JK. Frankly I dont know (or much care) who JK has produced. I do care about this project. Flat out, every track is solid. I don't beleive it had much commercial success but then most gems remain undiscovered. There are several special artists but the whole point of this project was to bring different people of different backgrounds together for their common love of solid grooves. It Worked and check out the DVD of the same title. I own it too!!!!
